Opinions story

 In the society that we live in today, there is all sorts of judgement. Most people would like to say that they are not judge mental and allow people to do what they please without having an opinion, however, this isn't realistic.
    I too, sometimes find myself judging people before i really get to know them, based on appearances and rumors. I try my hardest not to because I wouldn't want someone doing the same to me. I have also heard people talking about others negatively for reasons they can't control like appearance and something as pointless as how they speak. Judgement can be vocalized, or simply be a mere thought in one's mind. Either way it's still there, and occurs all the time. What's even worse is this criticism happens so naturally, that we don't even realize that we're doing it. Why does any of it matter? What other people appear to be, or decide to do, doesn't effect our personal lives.  Judgement is natural and no matter how much we try to completely rid ourselves of it, it's very difficult to live without. Personally, when I encounter a situation that has me a victim of judgement, I try my best not to express concern.Words can hurt, and they definitely have hurt the people living in our society today. I don't think that we fully understand the power behind the words that we say. And maybe the judgement isn't directly expressed to the person, but that doesn't make it any less hurtful.  Judgement when its expressed vocally can turn into un-necessary conflict that could easily be avoided if society would learn to better contain their judgment and opinions. Judgement is an un-avoidable concept, but learning to control it, is an honorable quality. One many should practice more. The society we live in today is not completely and whole-heartedly accepting so people who are willing to take a moment to better themselves, specifically in the art of avoiding judgement, are greatly appreciated. People are capable of change and maybe one day in the future people won't judge completely based on looks or what we personally don't think is normal, because it doesn't match the pre-set image we have in our minds for "socially acceptable behavior". The first step is for us to learn to love the diversity that surrounds us is to embrace the differences people have in personalities, styles, race, speech, etc. and accept people the way they are. 

hdr photography preview

1. The camera needs to have an AEB function, and you need a tripod and editing software.
2. We need a tripod and a camera and a software program.
3. HDR helps people capture amazing photographs that can't just be captured by camera.
4. We will see very high dynamic range and colors that can't be captured when only using a camera. This technique only works when combining multiple photos.

winning critique:

The judges liked most of the pictures and enjoyed the story of almost all photos.
I thought peoples' emotions in the pictures were great. I didn't like that some photos were blurry.

recap:

Process: Look at portfolios, delete worst pictures, critique the better pictures, and chose the top photos

Parts 1-6

I agree with the judges about the first photo. I think theres nothing great ,or that stands out, about it and it's blurry. It's a picture of a man in a red sled.

I disagree with the judges about the picture of a girl with a goose. They thought it was pretty good but i think thats its plain and nothing i haven't seen before.

final exam preview activity

1.  iMovie is an app that lets people make videos from their apple phones. It is very simple to use and there are many different options to chose from. People can add titles, filters, special effects, soundtracks, and other things too.

iMovie for iOS and macOS are specially made so that people can start editing on their phone and can switch to work on their iPad. You can transfer the video from iPhone to iPad from anywhere, regardless of wifi. After creating the movie, people can watch it anywhere, even their apple tv. The app also has great quality, making it funner to watch the videos.

1. This website goes deeper into detail than the first website I used. This website describes specifically how to adjust certain things while making the video. For example, it explains how to use the clip trimmer with pictures. I like how this website explains in detail how to use trim, but it doesn't explain many other things which I was curious about.

With the trim option, a person can cut out certain parts of the video that are unwanted or unneeded. With this option, you can extend audio or the video itself by selecting trimmer and dragging corners of selected frames/parts. an editor can make the video shorter, longer, take out sections, and edit the audio to make the clip more interesting for the viewer.

2. I knew imovie had a trim option but i didnt know how to use it
3. id idnt know how to change the sound
4. Im concerned about the voiceover
5. im confident i can make it interesting
6. i would probably take pictures of everyday events
